addEventListener("soundend", (event) => { })

onsoundend = (event) => { }

Event type

Examples

You can use the soundend event in an addEventListener method:

const recognition = new (SpeechRecognition || webkitSpeechRecognition)();

recognition.addEventListener("soundend", (event) => {
  console.log("Sound has stopped being received");
});

Or use the onsoundend event handler property:
